The Arizona Cardinals are in the middle of a coaching search, but this search is a little different. It doesn’t come after years of struggles and a coach that was let go because of poor performance. Bruce Arians retired. No one was fired.

This is part of the reason why team president Michael Bidwill seems very chipper about the process.

Bidwill believes the Cardinals’ job is attractive, as the team is stacked with talent and the feeling around the team is not one of dread. “No one is hanging their head,” he said. He believes this is a talented team ready to compete now, as they have been for several seasons.

He is also excited because of the candidates he has interviewed.

“Its the best group of candidates that I’ve ever had the opportunity to interview,” he said.

Bidwill has been involved in three previous hirings, dating back to when the team hired Dennis Green in 2004.

Bidwill is in no hurry to hire one, as he wants to be thorough and also because a good number of the candidates the team is considering are still coaching in the postseason.

But he is confident in the team’s process and wants to make sure he and general manager Steve Keim can hire the man who can bring the team championships.
